Google would redirect to the abnow.com or mediashift site whenever I clicked on a search result link. I downloaded and ran Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Pro and removed several nasty Trojan viruses. After the restart everything seems to be back to normal. I'm no longer redirected and can see no signs of my recent Malware annoyance. I'm hoping an expert could possibly review my most recent DDS reports to see if in fact this issue has been resolved. I fear the malware/trojan viruses have gone into hiding or hibernation only to return stronger another day. Your time and consideration is extremely appreciated. .

Looks like I'll have to just bite the bullet and reinstall Windows.

Thank you for everything Gary.
